John Guest fittings (insertion and removal)
NOTE:
Be careful when cutting the poly tube so that there are no rough edges and that the tube is not distorted.
1. Use a sharp knife to ensure the tube has a clean, straight
edge. Do not cut at an angle.
2. Remove any swarf or unwanted material.
3. Push the tube into the John Guest fitting making sure all
connections to the John Guest fittings are pushed in past the
“O”ring to full depth, at least 15-16mm.
4. Check for a good joint by pulling back on the tube. If the tube
comes out of the fitting, repeat the above step.
5. To remove the tube, press the collet into the fitting and at the
same time pull back on the tube.
